Optimum Distance Between Different Varieties Of Mint

Question

I currently have a few different kinds of mint in the garden. It’s a fairly big garden so they’re not close to each other because I’ve read that mint will easily cross-pollinate. So, my question is how much space should I leave between different varieties of mint to maintain the integrity of each type?

Answer 1

Can you plant them 100 yards apart? That is optimum but not usually feasible for home gardens. Here are some tips you can try with pollination:
